Bummer, ...We could sure use him back here in Tampa, but I know that would have been an unlikely scenario. Keyshawn is a hell of a good receiver in my opinion.

...and dont let the door hit u in ur overrated, under-performng butt, big fella!!

what a waste of talent -- at least in his own mind!!

"a self-made man, in love with his creator!"

jerk!!!!

It's a shame. He would have made a perfect Raider! His ego would've fit right in!

The only thing I would like to see Meshawn doing would be staring in impotence commercials.

I don't understand people who claim he underperformed. They obviously either didn't watch him play or don't understand football.
Keyshawn had a big mouth, but he always played well and played hard. When he wasn't catching the ball across the middle of the field and taking big hits, he was downfield blocking.
Cut out his vocal cords, and I'll take him on my team any day!!!

I agree with Ron & other Keyshawn worshippers, Keyshawn has a big ego & big mouth but he had one hell of a career, especially here in Tampa because the Bucs were the team he got his Super Bowl ring. Keyshawn, good luck at ESPN!!!!
